ActiveTransfer Server 10.7 | webMethods ActiveTransfer Documentation | Administering ActiveTransfer Server | Migrating Assets | Overview
 
Overview
You can migrate ActiveTransfer assets from one ActiveTransfer database to another. Migrate assets when:
*You want to deploy assets from a development environment to a production environment.
*You have multiple ActiveTransfer Server instances and you want each instance to have identical assets. You can create the assets on one ActiveTransfer Server instance and then migrate the assets to the other instances.
In this context, a server instance is the ActiveTransfer Server instance that you are exporting assets from, or importing assets to, as well as the ActiveTransfer Gateway instances defined for the particular ActiveTransfer Server instance.
*You want to change the type of database you use for ActiveTransfer. For example, you were using an Oracle database and now want to use a SQL Server database.
Important:
Only use the procedures in this chapter to migrate ActiveTransfer assets between ActiveTransfer Server instances of the same release. If you need to migrate assets from one release of ActiveTransfer Server to another, follow the instructions in Upgrading Software AG Products.
